Tong Jia anecdote

<four four>

After Tong Jiuzheng was imprisoned, it was thanks to the priceless jade bracelet Ji Lan gave him before leaving.The official who received the jade bracelet was on duty, and arranged for her a separate cell, not to mention, and quietly removed the shackles from her body at night.

Early the next morning, Tong Jiu huddled in a corner of the gloomy cell, enduring the pungent stench and musty smell in the room, and was dozing off on the haystack when the prison door was opened.

"Han Luqi, the prince has summoned you, let's go." The officer said sharply, put the shackles on her again, and escorted her to leave.

This time, the second hall in the lobby was not upgraded, but in the warm pavilion of the back office, Prince Jian was sitting upright drinking tea, saw her come in, glanced sideways, and said involuntarily, "Come on, drag me down first, and you will be responsible for thirty years." .”

Before Tong Jiu realized what was going on, she was dragged outside and pressed onto the bench. She had a good meal of the board, her face was flushed from the pain, and cold sweat ran down her face and neck. It dripped down, and the roots of the hair were covered with a layer of ice, and I almost lost my breath.

Seeing Tong Jiu who was dragged back and lying half dead on the ground, Prince Jian motioned for the officials to release the shackles for her, and then waved them away.

Holding a cup, he leisurely walked down from the upper seat, looked down at her, and said, "Han Luqi, are you wronged?"

Tong Jiu was lying on the ground, not daring to move at all, just shook his head, and said two words in a trembling voice weakly, "No wrong."

After she finished speaking, she raised her eyes a little, and Prince Jian's official boots were close at hand, and even the patterns on them could be clearly seen.

Prince Jian sneered, walked back and forth for two steps, took another two sips of tea, and said in a somewhat good mood, "Han Luqi, if you weren't written on Guerjia's complaint against the Fucha family, this king It's been a while, and I can't remember that incident. I just blame you for falling into this king's hands, and this king will reason with you."

After speaking, he squatted down slowly, tilted his head to look at Tong Jiu, squinted his eyes and scolded, "Slave who doesn't know how to praise! You are only one of the candidates, so you are superior to others?" Seeing that Tong Jiu didn't respond.

Pointing to the sky with a sneer, he said, "Tell you, the master of the Qing Dynasty is a bannerman. Even if you are a first-ranker in the dynasty, you are still a slave of our bannermen."

"Yes." Tong Jiu was shocked by the huge pain on his body and the coldness on the ground, his whole body began to tremble, sometimes twitching.

Seeing her distressed appearance, Prince Jian was still honest. He eased his tone and said, "However, it's because you had tuberculosis back then, so you didn't agree to raise the flag for Tong Jia Ruiyuan's adoptive step."

Thinking of Tong Jia's fate, Yun Mi couldn't help poking her lips, and patted Tong Jiu's forehead, telling her to wake up and listen to her carefully.

Said sarcastically, "That year, if Borjigit Banjul hadn't been eyeing Namu when he entered Beijing, Tong Jia Ruiyuan came to beg this king again and again. You think this king would give him his favor, I just want to reward you, the face of this coated slave!"

Thinking of this incident, Prince Jian raised his eyebrows again, and said, "What's the matter? I just got married earlier, and you immediately got tuberculosis."

Tong Jiu was in a daze.In her own memory, there was a time when Ama thought that the Han family was an old man in the house, and for the sake of Han Luqi's future, she mentioned the matter of adopting Han Luqi several times.But then I didn't know what went wrong, so I let it go.

"Didn't you die when you played the report? Why are you still alive?" Prince Jian grabbed her by the collar with his right hand and asked, "Now you have the ability to survive. You can't live in the old days, but you are running on the grassland. I went to seduce the widow! Why, you don’t want to be a slave to the Bannerman, but think the other way around, can’t you be a master?”

"Crack." As he said, the teacup held in his left hand fell to the ground, and the tea and tea leaves splashed Tong Jiu's face immediately.

Prince Shen wiped the water drops on his hem with his left hand in disgust, pointed at Tong Jiu's face, and said, "I tell you, Han Luqi, that in this capital, this king wants to kill you, a lost family. A cup is as easy as pie."

"Don't dare, dare not." Tong Jiu thought for a moment, and then he guessed why Prince Jian was so hard on him.

Struggling quickly to make a humble kowtow, he said heavily with his head on the ground, "Please calm down, Namu Gege is so precious. No matter how young and ignorant the Caomin was back then, he would save a Baoyi from such a humble background like Caomin." Slave, with a sick body, you won the first place in Tanhua by chance, how can you climb high and drag the family down."

"Well, you're pretty self-aware." Seeing that she had subdued, Prince Jian nodded in satisfaction, let go of the right hand that was holding her, and patted her.

Standing up, he took a deep breath and said, "Right now, this king will give you a chance to make up for your mistakes. If you do well, we won't mention these things in the future. If you don't do it well, this king will kill you at any time!"

"Yes, yes." Tong Jiu replied, but she was a little surprised in her heart. Did Prince Xie think of using himself after all these troubles?To satisfy his sense of superiority that the Bannermen conquered the Han people?

Seeing that her tone was perfunctory, Prince Xie warned, "Han Luqi, do you really think that Guerja Bomul insisted that the Fucha clan was not a woman with his empty teeth? Let me tell you, it was clearly written in the certificate. Before you got married, his wife, Qi Jia, had read the letters between you."

"What letter?" Tong Jiu gasped in pain and asked in confusion.

"What letter? As long as this king wants to go to the end of the trial, who can get rid of the relationship between you and that Fucha family. At that time, the reputation of the Fucha family, hehe——" Prince Jian smiled and sat back on the upper seat." Han Luqi, you should know how many people care about this job of supplying imperial medicine. There is Qi Jia's Yuhetang here."

"Caomin is willing to follow the lead of the prince." Hearing the seriousness in it, Tong Jiu immediately expressed his opinion, and said scrupulously, "I just don't know what kind of errand it is. Caomin is not doing well. It's a small thing to let the prince dispose of it. In case of omissions, it will be delayed. If you have done your business, the lord, the grassroots will die forever."

Prince Jian didn't give her a chance to shirk at all, and said, "Outside the pass, since you have the ability to raise [-] shi of food and grass within a few days, this task is not difficult for you. I beat you today to let you know It hurts, but it’s good to make some progress. In the future, I will go to the mansion to be my king’s coat, so I can save my duty."

He stood up and said, "When I came, the king accepted Namu and let you go back. This time, I will spare you first. When I return to the mansion, I will take care of you honestly. After this New Year's Eve, I will wait for the king's summons." .” After speaking, she walked out of the Nuan Pavilion with her hands behind her back.

Not long after, a few more people came in from the outside, they were not official servants, they looked like they were dressed in royal residences, and after covering Tong Jiu with a cloak, they moved her onto a stretcher and carried her out.

Tong Jiu buried her head on the stretcher, followed by a gust of cool air, and after listening to the fragmentary footsteps of several people stepping on the snow, seeing the green snow on the ground, there was another sound of opening and closing the door and The hustle and bustle of people.

Tong Jiu's heart moved, she knew that she was finally out of the clan mansion.

"Brother——!" It was Hong Xiao's voice, and Tong Jiu raised her head to follow the sound with difficulty, and saw Hong Xiao rushing towards him from the carriage.

"Master Han, the little ones are ordered to send the adults here. Take care, the adults, and the little ones are leaving." Seeing someone from the Han family coming to pick them up, the servants of the palace handed over the stretcher to Hua Jingfu and bowed to say goodbye.

"Jiu'er, Jiu'er!" Seeing Tong Jiu being carried out like this, she didn't even answer calling her, and Hong Xiao, who stayed here all night without closing her eyes, was startled in her heart.

Squatting down on the upper body, he held Tong Jiu's face in his hands. Seeing her pale and weak face, he hurriedly asked in surprise, "Ji'er, have they executed you?"

"Still, let's go first." Hua Jingfu saw that Hong Xiao was about to cry when she spoke. After all this trouble, both the master and the servant were haggard, and it was not suitable to stay here for a long time.

Then she pulls Hongxiao over, bends down and puts Tong Jiu lightly on her back and sends her into the carriage.Hong Xiao covered Tong Jiu with the cloak that had slipped down, and when she lowered her head, she saw that Tong Jiu's lower body was covered in blood all over the hem of the back.He covered his mouth in shock, his eyes were dark, and he fell straight down.

"Sister Hong!" The servants were quick-eyed and helped her up.Just like that, a group of people hurriedly put their master and servant into the carriage and drove back.

On the way, Hua Jingfu squeezed Hongxiao's human and tiger's mouth, Hongxiao woke up from the pain, saw Tong Jiu who was crouching on one side in her arms, tears rolled down, hugged her and cried "Tell me, when will you listen to my advice?"

Wiping tears while sobbing, he cried in a hoarse voice and said angrily, "I thought about it when I came here yesterday. If you can't get out, I'll crash and die here. It's clean to go with you. When you get to the hell The underworld also has something to rely on."

The carriage bumped, and Tong Jiu was in severe pain. Hearing Hong Xiao's sorrow, he didn't dare to make a sound.The carriage entered the Fucha mansion and drove straight to the main house before stopping.

Early in the morning, the young servant who went ahead rode a fast horse and ran back to report the letter.Tuya and Ji Lan were both there, and when they heard that Tong Jiu had been beaten, they ordered someone to fetch a rattan stool with several layers of soft quilts on it so that they could wait at the door.A long list was made on one side, and people were asked to go to the front to get the medicine, and the maids brought hot water into it.

Tong Jiu hadn't arrived yet, all the gates from the back house of the Fucha Mansion to the Yangzheng Hall in front were open.

Hearing the sound of a carriage outside, the Fucha sisters led a group of maids and servants carrying spring stools, surrounded and carefully carried Tong Jiu into the inner house.Tong Jiu lay down on the soft stool, feeling much better than before, propped her head up and looked around, but couldn't find Ji Lan, her heart sank, and she lay down again.

Entering the main room, Jing Fu and Hong Xiao took over the spring stool and walked around the newly added screen. Sisters Fucha followed Ji Lan's previous instructions and stayed outside the screen to receive the medicine brought in by the maids.

Ji Lan stood by the couch, clutching the hot towel that had just been wrung out of the water basin, watching Jing Fu move Tong Jiu onto the bed, and went forward to wipe the tea leaves from her forehead and face.

As soon as Tong Jiu's upper body was laid on the cloth tiger, she was burying her head and grinning, enduring the pain and moving her waist, when she felt her face warm up, and when she looked up, she was looking at Ji Lan's bloodshot eyes, so she stretched out her hand Take the hand towel in her hand.

He smiled dryly, and said, "Let Hongxiao and the others take care of these tasks." After tugging twice, Ji Lan didn't let go, and just looked at her like that.
